I found myself a little tense, sweating on the first shot after reading some
of the posts about the intimidating recoil. I was pleasantly surprised with the
combination of Sin Arms muzzle break, gracoil reducer, and of course a 9 lb. barrel.
The first ten break in shots were fun and quite accurate!

Absolutely, I will. I am working up 225 Accubonds first. I expect stunning groups.
Also have 250 scenars and smk's. And 245 secret weapons with 900+ B.C.

I bought some VV165 yesterday, going to try this, and one person swears on RETUMBO! I may give it a try as well!
Dennis, I have had better accuracy results with Retumbo than with H1000 when I was shooting mine as a single shot in the Stockade stock before the XLR arrived. I didn't shoot over the chrony so I am not sure on overall performance, but accuracy was better given the same COAL, bullets, brass, primers, rifle, conditions, ect.

Yessir, I too find my setup likes Retumbo best, so far.

OK, I have my Retumbo and 300grn SMK's and Scenar's. 92.5 + - seems to be my load.
SMK's are working well .030 off, Scenar's about .010 in. I am willing to try something different as my tightest groups are only about .450 @ 100yds.
2810 to 2840 seems to be the speed.
Any recommendations on COAL?

Have not been home enough to develop diff jumps. Started all so far with. 065 jump
I have better luck so far at 300 to 500 yds, don't think this round stabilizes till past 100 yds

Yes, looks like I am going to load some and dedicate a day to go to the 300 yd range! I am close.
Let me know on the 250gr loads!
Might even try some 225 accubonds also!
